Ofwat’s latest 2023-24 report underscores a fundamental issue: while the water market is progressing, its pace remains too slow for businesses facing mounting water supply challenges.
We work with organisations to help take charge and be one step ahead in today’s market with practical, proactive solutions that strengthen water resilience.
Optimise data insights
Effective water management starts with high-quality data. Waterscan works closely with businesses to enhance visibility over their water usage, enabling precise billing, reduced costs, and the identification of inefficiencies. With Ofwat noting gaps in data quality across the market, this is a prime area to get ahead with robust data solutions.
Prioritise water efficiency
Improving water efficiency not only cuts costs but also aligns with sustainability goals, reducing environmental impact. Waterscan supports clients in implementing water-saving measures that deliver measurable results while promoting responsible water use, an area where businesses can act decisively.
Explore Self-Supply opportunities
Self-Supply offers businesses more control over their water services, reducing costs and enhancing transparency by allowing them to interact directly with wholesalers. As noted by Ofwat, Self-Supply is a powerful tool for businesses aiming to take the reins on their water management.
While Self-Supply was a leap into unchartered waters, it has delivered better than expected results in a short timeframe.
